M a t e r i a l e x a m i n e d. Colombia: Caquetá: Malaise trap in canopy: Florencia, Vda. La Viciosa, C. I. Macagual, 01°30ʹ30˝ N 75°40ʹ12˝ W, 259 m a. s. l., 23.11.2016, Florencia, Vda.

San Rafael, Finca Bellavista, 01°09ʹ57˝ N 75°26ʹ04˝ W, 231 m a. s. l., 21.12.2016, 7 Ơ (Y. Ramos) (CEUAM).
Distribution. Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Trinidad, Venezuela, Brazil, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Paraguay (Kameneva, 2004 b). Colombia (new record).
Remarks. Examined specimens from Colombia: Milán have extremely long stalked eyes on male, as long as in most examined specimens from Central America (figs 1–7), whereas the specimens collected in Florencia (fig. 8) have conspicuously shorter eyestalks, as described for P. intermedia Kameneva, 2004; these specimens have wing pattern typical for P. latifrons, and we consider this to be individual variation.
